WORLD CONSTITUTION AND
PARLIAMENT ASSOCIATION

(WCPA)

Some delegates from the 13th Session of
Parliament hosted by CMS Lucknow, India

The WCPA is a worldwide organization working with
love and dedication for planetary peace, justice, freedom, and
sustainability. We are widely affiliated with human rights
organizations, environmental organizations, peace organizations, and
other concerned groups working for a decent future of planet Earth.

The World Constitution and Parliament Association is the organization
responsible for drafting the
Constitution for the Federation of Earth
and for promoting its ratification by the people and nations of Earth.

We stand for worldwide
environmental protection, non-violent conflict resolution, human rights
protection, and the rule of just, enforceable law for all nations and
peoples.

The WCPA was
established in 1958 by Professor Philip Isely and his wife Margaret Isely of Denver Colorado, USA, to
create a Constitution for a Federation of Earth
and to promote
democratic world government under that Constitution.

It was
soon joined by Dr. Terence Amerasinghe and Dr. Reinhart Ruge, who became
Co-Presidents. The
organization has grown into a world-wide movement since that time, with
chapters today in many countries involving many thousands of citizens around the
world.

In addition, over the years thousands of concerned world citizens have registered as delegates for
Provisional World Parliaments
organized by WCPA and have declared themselves as personal ratifiers of
the Earth Constitution. To date, there have been 13 sessions of the
World Parliament in cities around the world.

Projects

We have specific projects in a
number of countries where WCPA chapters work on their preferred issues.
Our global projects include the following:

(1)

The Constitution

Worldwide promotion of the
Earth Constitution as a subject of study, discussion, and model for
emulation within educational institutions, NGOs, and public forums.
Through this we promote world citizenship and the need for peoples,
nations, and corporations to begin thinking globally in terms of
democratic world law for the Earth, with the goal of the eventual
ratification of the Constitution, bringing democratic law and
environmental protection to our endangered planet.

(2)

The World Parliament

The WCPA is also responsible for holding sessions of
the Provisional World
Parliament, and for the future convening of a Founding Ratification Convention,
to obtain official ratification of this Earth Constitution under the
criteria given in Article 17 of the Constitution.

We are developing the
Collegium of World Judges that
is mandated in Article 9 of the Constitution, primarily through inviting
retired Supreme Court Justices from various countries to participate.
From the Collegium are selected justices to staff various benches of the
World Court System, thereby promoting the rule of law with universal
jurisdiction for the Earth. At the moment we are developing a
bench of the World Court to examine the
Chevron-Ecuador case that has
been going on for more than 20 years.

Signatories to the Earth Constitution

We invite people everwhere to become a personal ratifier of the Earth
Constitution by signing the Pledge of Allegiance. As the number of
signatories from all over the planet continues to grow, so does the
momentum to recognize and ratify the Constitution.

People may be individual members of WCPA or be involves with WCPA
chapters that exist in a number of countries. Membership is free
in the poorer countries and very low cost in the wealthier countries.
WCPA members often develop local projects as representatives of the
Earth Constitution and its list of human rights, human equality,
principles of justice, and environmental protection.
